>Martin Harris, one of the Three Witnesses to the golden plates, described his witness as a visionary experience. John Gilbert, printer of the first edition of the Book of Mormon, recalled asking Harris if he saw the plates with his naked eyes, to which Harries replied "No, I saw them with a spiritual eye".

lol. lmao

Mormonism practices credo baptism. Credo Baptism is idolatry and demonic. Sacraments are gifts from heaven, not to be withheld by man. The demonic trinity is Nuda Scriptura - credobaptism - closed communion. If you practice any your church is tainted by demons. If you practice all three your church is literally a gathering of satan himself.

Bible only, only adult baptism, communion for only the specific members in good standing of that local church or the specific denomination.

In practice babtists will just use their parental leverage to pressure their children into making public confessions they can't understand at like 4

that book is utter drivel, mate. utter drivel.
all that is relevant about Smith tells us that the man was a charlatan.
this having been said, i admire what these dudes have accomplished in utah and fear that an effective destruction of mormonism, unless it is done by people of my religious ilk, could result in the advent of an urban paradigm akin to the degeneracy one sees in cities "governed" by leftists.

oddly enough, i read a bio of smith two weeks ago, one published fairly recently: Joseph Smith, the Rise and Fall of an American Prophet.

I also acquired the opposite sort of bio, the sympathetic one, Joseph Smith: Rough Stone Rolling.
Gonna read this one sometime next year, though.

It's a method I recommend: reading books with contrasting viewpoints. I find it nourishes my intellect.

When eisegesis becomes exegesis and man can know (gnow) god directly.

So never. Read D&G Differance and Repetition.
>>
>>24822528
weirdly inappropriate secular argument to bring to a discussion on religion
>>
>>24822628
Man can today and has known God directly in the past, you just need to be perfectly humble and just and receive the Holy Ghost in the way that he chooses to manifest it to you.

And muslims are worse than mormons, commies are worse than muslims, disproving your assertion...

Delusion is not knowledge, and accurate understanding of delusion is not pride, in the negative sense.

>>24822528
Because it is a wholesome community event where all the old people get to see a cute local baby? Like sometimes a religious ritual is good simply because it is cute. A baby getting Baptized is like that.

If it is really from Africa, that would make more sense, then it being from America.

I agree. If something is cute the usually it is correct.
The world would be better if we judged by that criterion more often.

Christianity is fake and gay, though, so baptism means nothing. Splashing water on a baby doesn't do anything to them, they won't even remember it. I had no idea I was baptized as an infant until my mother told me about it when I was in my 20s. Did it somehow invalidate my atheism? Not at all. It did for some reason make Christians more upset with the fact I was an atheist, though, but I can't imagine why.

Mormanism is a bad synthesis of 19th century new-age thought and German idealism
In an ideal world the Army would have knocked them out, but instead Lincoln waged war on America. Sad!

Mormonism is the most obviously fraudulent religion with over 10k adherents

People only claim to have affections for it because "lots of white people are Mormon"

If Mormonism is not true, then one would have to regard J. Smith as having the most uncanny ability of inducing ecstatic, revelatory states of those in his company, making him one the greatest charismatics is history, and I believe the greatest in the modern world. /lit/ would take interest in this if they actually cared about culture

There are other similar types, like Charles Russel and L. Ron Hubbard, but, something about Joseph Smith is the other way, where those guys are just weird, Joseph Smith is enlightened-weird.

It has more than just that, it also has comments and an introduction about making sense of the text in new light. Very good, and useful.
